Method and system for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying imsi

ABSTRACT

A method for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI includes, when a cell phone is turned on, determining if a first IMSI is consistent with a pre-stored second IMSI. If the first IMSI is determined to be consistent with the second IMSI, the cell phone enters a subscriber mode corresponding to the second IMSI. If the first IMSI is determined to not be consistent with the second IMSI, the first IMSI is matched with a third IMSI of an IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone; when the first IMSI is determined to be consistent with the third IMSI, the cell phone enters a subscriber mode corresponding to the third IMSI. Thereby, the cell phone quickly and efficiently completes identifying an IMSI and automatically switches subscriber mode.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the field of mobile communication terminal technologies and in particular to a method and system for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number).

DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART

Currently for a cell phone, it is the same mode to enter when any SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, e.g. GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) 900/1800, that meets the network standard requirements is inserted and the cell phone is turned on. At the same time, different people have different selections and requirements for the cell phone mode. In some cases, different SIM cards would be inserted into the same cell phone for the use by different subscribers when the cell phone still has only one default subscriber mode. As a result, some subscribers cannot use the mode that they like or are used to. Alternatively, for a dual-card dual-standby cell phone with two SIM cards inserted, the subscriber sometimes has different needs for the two cards with one card probably focusing on entertainment functions and the other SIM card specifically configured for kids that shuts down the entertainment functions and only has the communication functions so as to prevent them from spending too much time on playing with the cell phone. Currently, however, the dual-card dual-standby cell phones can similarly enter one mode as well. As a result, the subscriber's need cannot be satisfied.

Therefore, the prior art still needs to be improved and developed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The present invention provides a method and system for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI. To make the object, technical solution and advantage of the present invention clearer and more specific, the present invention will be further described in detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments herein are only used to describe the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention.

Currently for a cell phone, it is the same mode to enter when any SIM card (e.g. GSM 900/1800) that meets the network standard requirements is inserted and the cell phone is turned on. IMSI, i.e. International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number, is an identifier to differentiate mobile subscribers, which is stored in SIM cards and may be used to differentiate valid information of mobile subscribers. Moreover, IMSI is unique, i.e. IMSI is bundled with the cell phone number, which is defined in a server HLR (Home Location Register) set and maintained by the service provider (e.g. China Mobile) that has the contract with the cell phone having the SIM card. One SIM card corresponds to one IMSI code and is unique. With the present invention, a mobile terminal device having multiple mobile subscriber modes enters different subscriber modes through identifying different IMSIs by the terminal, thereby achieving the use of one cell phone by multiple subscribers.

As shown in FIG. 1, the method for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI comprises:

S100. When the cell phone is turned on, reading the first IMSI of the first SIM card currently inserted into the cell phone.

Each time when the cell phone is turned on with a SIM card inserted, the terminal obtains the EFimsi file that stores IMSI in the current SIM card through a reading action to obtain the first IMSI of the inserted SIM card.

S200. Determining if the read first IMSI is consistent with the second IMSI pre-stored in the cell phone, if yes, the cell phone is turned on and enters the subscriber mode corresponding to the second IMSI, and if no, go to Step S300;

Wherein the cell phone pre-storing the second IMSI is specifically: when the cell phone is shut down at the previous time, it automatically records the second IMSI of the second SIM card and the information of the subscriber mode that the second IMSI corresponds to, and stores the second IMSI and the information of its corresponding subscriber mode in the cell phone memory. There is a correlation between the second IMSI and its corresponding subscriber mode, and only the IMSI of the previous shutdown is stored here. For multiple changes of SIM cards, only the IMSI recorded after the last change of SIM card is stored. If the terminal is dual card, two IMSIs are stored in the memory at the previous shutdown, and the terminal will compare the IMSIs one by one. With this step, situations before and after insertion of the same SIM card into a subscriber's cell phone can be quickly determined with no need for subsequent matching process, which realizes the quick start of the cell phone's subscriber mode and facilitates subscriber operations.

S300. Matching the first IMSI with the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone, and when the matching is successful, the cell phone enters the subscriber mode corresponding to the IMSI in the IMSI list that is successfully matched.

Wherein the cell phone pre-storing the IMSI list is specifically: setting up an IMSI list in the cell phone, receiving IMSI inputted by a subscriber and storing it into the IMSI list, receiving the subscriber mode configuration set by the subscriber for the IMSI, storing the subscriber mode in the IMSI list and correlating to the corresponding IMSI. Furthermore, setting up a mode change menu in the cell phone for performing subscriber-defined setup on the IMSI list, and setting up login authority for the mode change menu, receiving a control code inputted by a subscriber and performing verification, and if the verification is passed, entering the settings interface of the mode change menu. In other words, a cell phone subscriber may type in the IMSI of a SIM card recognized by the subscriber in advance on his own. For example, a subscriber types in the IMSI of his family member's SIM card into the mode change menu and stores in the IMSI list. In such a way, it ensures that when the family member inserts his own SIM card in the subscriber's cell phone, it can pass the verification by the cell phone and normally use the cell phone.

In a preferred embodiment, the IMSI list is shown in Table 1, in which the correspondence between each IMSI and different subscriber modes is set up. For example, IMSI 1 in Table 1 corresponds and is correlated to the subscriber mode of basic functions+communication functions. A subscriber may make audio calls, video calls, send text messages, and send multimedia messages under this mode. When this cell phone is used by a young person, on the other hand, the mode corresponding to IMSI 3 of the young person's SIM card is basic functions+entertainment functions, i.e. the subscriber may play all kinds of games, open up a player to listen to music, and refresh Weibo online, etc. in this mode. If this is a student, the parents may set up the mode that corresponds to IMSI 2 of his SIM card to be basic functions+study functions. Under this mode, the student may use dictionaries, e-books or other study applications that the subscriber has installed manually, but cannot open up applications with entertainment functions such as Weibo and games.

TABLE 1 Correspondence between IMSI in the IMSI list and subscriber modes IMSI Subscriber mode IMSI 1 basic functions + communication functions (making audio calls, video calls, sending text messages, and sending multimedia message) IMSI 2 basic functions + study functions (e.g. dictionaries, e-books or other study applications that the subscriber has installed manually) IMSI 3 basic functions + entertainment functions (various developmental games, digital games, etc.) IMSI 4 all functions IMSI codes defined by subscribers other modes other IMSI codes that are not self-defined regular modes (limited functions)

When the matching between the first IMSI and the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone is not successful, the cell phone enters the control code input interface of the mode change menu, receives a control code inputted by the subscriber and performs verification, if the verification is passed, enters the settings interface of the mode change menu to add the first IMSI to the IMSI list, and receives and stores the subscriber mode set by the subscriber corresponding to the first IMSI.

There are two pathways for a cell phone to receive new IMSI. One, as described above, the cell phone subscriber enters the mode change menu in advance to input and save the IMSI to a new SIM card, so as to ensure that said SIM card can pass verification after being inserted into the cell phone. Two, when a new SIM card is inserted into the cell phone, after the matching between the IMSI and the pre-stored IMSI list is not successful, the cell phone automatically switches to the login interface of the mode change menu, if the subscriber inputs a correct control code and the verification is successful, the cell phone concludes that the new IMSI is permitted for use by the cell phone subscriber, the cell phone will automatically add the new IMSI to the IMSI list and enter the subscriber mode editing mode, which allows the subscriber to set up the subscriber mode that the new IMSI is to correspond and correlate to. When the subscriber completes the setup, the cell phone receives the setup information and stores it in the IMSI list.

Preferably, the cell phone enters the set subscriber mode corresponding to the first IMSI when the first IMSI is added to the IMSI list, and the subscriber mode set by the subscriber corresponding to the first IMSI is received and stored. Namely, when the saving of the new IMSI and its corresponding subscriber mode is completed, the cell phone automatically enters the subscriber mode corresponding to the new IMSI, which is convenient for the subscriber, and there is no need for manual switch after exiting the mode change menu.

In the preferred embodiment, the cell phone enters a regular mode that only has the function to make emergency calls when the matching between the first IMSI and the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone is not successful, and the received control code that is inputted by the subscriber fails verification. In the circumstance that both verifications are passed, it can be confirmed that the subscriber is not the cell phone subscriber himself. To protect the cell phone owner's privacy and to prevent the cell phone information from being stolen, therefore, the cell phone automatically switches to the regular mode in which the cell phone only has the function to make emergency calls. It makes sure that the subscriber can only use the cell phone to make calls, but cannot look up the information stored on the cell phone.

The control code verification information is stored in the mode change menu and the data information of the mode change menu is stored in the cell phone memory. The data information of the mode change menu may be stored in the same storage space of the cell phone memory with the second IMSI and the corresponding subscriber mode information.

A system for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI that uses the above method for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI, as shown in FIG. 2, wherein the system for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI comprises:

A first IMSI reading module 100 for reading the first IMSI of the first SIM card currently inserted into the cell phone;

A second IMSI matching determination module 200 for determining if the read first IMSI is consistent with the second IMSI pre-stored in the cell phone, and carrying out predetermined operations according to the determination result;

An IMSI list matching determination module 300 for matching the first IMSI with the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone, and when the matching is successful, the cell phone enters the subscriber mode corresponding to the IMSI in the IMSI list that is successfully matched.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart of the method for automatically switching subscriber mode through identifying IMSI according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

S1, a SIM card is inserted into a terminal. The cell phone starts initialization.

S2, the terminal reads IMSI from the SIM card. The cell phone terminal reads from the SIM card the EFimsi filed stored therein, and consequently obtains IMSI.

S3, if the IMSI is consistent with the IMSI stored at the previous shutdown. The cell phone terminal calls the IMSI stored at the previous shutdown, i.e. the IMSI in the SIM card of the cell phone at the previous shutdown, and compares it with the obtained IMSI, if they are consistent, go to Step S6 and enter a corresponding subscriber mode. Namely, the cell phone enters the same subscriber mode as the previous shutdown, when the cell phone stores the IMSI at the previous shutdown, it also records the correlated subscriber mode. When verifying if the IMSI of the current SIM card is consistent with the previous IMSI, it just needs to directly enter the subscriber mode at the previous shutdown. Subsequently, go to Step S12 and end.

If the IMSI in the SIM card of the cell phone at the previous shutdown is not consistent with the obtained IMSI in the comparison, go to Step S4, and determine if it is the same as the stored IMSIs one by one. The cell phone will then enter the second matching to match with IMSIs in the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone, if the matching is successful, go to Step S5, and choose the corresponding mode. The successful matching with an IMSI in the IMSI list shows that the obtained IMSI is a SIM card used by the cell phone before or confirmed by the cell phone subscriber in advance. Therefore, it directly enters the mode change menu, the subscriber may perform subscriber-defined setup to set up a subscriber mode for the obtained IMSI. Since the obtained IMSI has existed in the IMSI list, the subscriber may also choose the subscriber mode that the obtained IMSI corresponds to in default. When the subscriber confirms the corresponding mode, go to Step S6 to enter the corresponding subscriber mode, subsequently go to Step S12 and end.

If the matching between the obtained IMSI and IMSIs in the IMSI list pre-stored in the cell phone is not successful, go to Step S7, and the subscriber inputs a control code. And Step S8 for determining if it is consistent with the control code set by the system. In the circumstance that matching is not successful in both times, the cell phone concludes that the SIM card is a new card to be used by the terminal subscriber or the SIM card is a new card used by another subscriber, and it has never been used on the terminal previously. In such a circumstance, the terminal provides a subscriber authentication input interface to the subscriber control code input interface for determining if the subscriber is the terminal subscriber himself. When the control code inputted by the subscriber is consistent with the control code set by the terminal (preferably this control code may be obtained through a legal route, e.g. when the device is purchased), go to Step S9 and enter the IMSI addition interface. Namely, the terminal enters the mode change menu. Subsequently go to Step S10, the subscriber inputs IMSI and sets up a corresponding subscriber mode. On the subscriber-defined IMSI interface, the subscriber adds the IMSI code of the current SIM card and sets up a corresponding mode. When it is completed, go to Step S6 and the terminal directly enters the mode stored by the subscriber. When the control code inputted by the subscriber is not consistent with the control code set by the terminal, go to Step S11 and the terminal enters the regular mode. Under the regular mode, the cell phone has limited functions, the subscriber of the newly inserted SIM card can only make emergency calls, and subsequently the flow ends.
